They were reading the Declaration of Independence. I came in with the line, "He has obstructed the administration of justice, by refusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers. He has made judges dependent on his will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amountand payment of their salaries," and I swear to God, I thought they were talking about Bush before I recognized the text.

It wasn't long afterward they received the news that Marlon Brando died. Jokes about him aside, he was an amazing actor, absolutely amazing; and I found him deeply charming even in lighthearted roles such as his bemused doctor in "Don Juan DeMarco." I suspect I'm going to have to rent "The Godfather" this weekend, unless everyone else in Phoenix beats me to it.
